Hello.
About a year ago – I took this photograph looking over towards Y Glyderau mountain range from Pen yr Ola Wen. Today, I finally managed to finish stitching it together, and here it is for all to enjoy;
You can see all the Glyderau Massif on this, everything from Glyder Fach right through to Elidir Fawr in the distance, screen right. Tryfan is the lump of rock on the left of the photo. Good times!
Hello.
My fave artist, John Butler Trio has released a new video for his awesome new single – Revolution.
The video is really simple, but beautifully made. This song is my favourite from the April Uprising album, and I can’t stop playing it. Check it out folks!
Hello.
Over the weekend I headed up home to North Wales for the weekend. It was a lovely wee break – I got to hang out with my lovely friends, and walk out in the Mountains. It was nice escaping the busy life that is London, but I was quite shocked to see so many people out and about walking in Snowdonia.
I took my camera with me, and managed to take a few epic panoramas of the views from the Glyderau:
The first is the view of Tryfan, the second is of Glyder Fawr with the Snowdon Horeshoe in the background, and the third is looking down Dyffryn Ogwen/Nant Ffrancon.
Good times. I have set up an online shop – I’m just about to branch out into the different options of printing these bad boys out, figuring out what the best way of doing it – so if you fancy placing an order for any of my photographs, please feel free to contact me, and I will direct you to my online shop once I have it open to the public.
Thanks.
Hello.
We had an awesome Winter in Wales in 2009. Really awesome snow, which made walking in the Mountains a fantastic experience. I managed to take this panorama from the summit of Cnicht a couple of days after Christmas.
This beast is stitched together from 12 photographs. I’m really happy with the result, apart from the ghosting effect on the rocks, far right of the image, which I will address in the next pass of cleaning up the image. Snowdon and his friends are on the left hand side of the photo.
I’m getting really into Photo-stitching at the minute. I’m about to make my prints for sale through an on-line shop, so keep an eye out – I’ll be ‘going live’ in a few days I imagine.
Hello.
I’m in the process of designing a website for our walking group up in Snowdonia, North Wales. Here are a couple of designs I’ve come up with so far:
These will be banners for different sections of the website. We’re still looking for a proper name for the group – ‘Mynyddoedd Cymru’ simply means ‘Welsh Mountains’ – but we want something that will stand out and be cool. If anyone can think of something good – please feel free to post it in the comments section.
The first is a combination of my two panoramas – Cwm Dyli and ‘Winter on Cnicht‘.
Thanks.
Hello.
I love looking through iPhoto on my iMac, and by doing so – I find some nice images that I haven’t yet stitched together to form a panorama. This one dates back to the end of August last year, a 7 photo stitch of Cwm Dyli, a trek of the Snowdon Horseshoe we did over the summer.
Turned out quite nicely me thinks, I love the mood of the photograph. Good times.
Hello.
I’ve started a new blog, documenting my progress building, creating, animating, designing – everything imaginable that goes into creating a short animated film, over here;

Please check it out, and feel free to give me some feedback. The film is a story my friend, Gafyn Lloyd a Music Engineer and I came up with about 4 years ago. I’ve decided that I would really love to get this film out there, and so I’m planning on working really hard on this, along with other animation projects to get myself back into the swing on things. I hope you’ll check it out often, as I plan on updating it weekly.
